Other then that it was fabulous, loved sitting out side watching the planes go over and just watching nature. Lovely warm cottage and every thing you need for a weeks holiday. My dog was very happy too. The owner put a beauitful christmas tree in the cottage for us and a bottle of bubbly and chocolate. Could not have asked for more. Lovely park for the dog Catton Park 1.6 miles from cottage which we used nearly every day. Very pleasant cottage.
